Ran up Emigration a little past the hairpin turn. The canyon winds were blowing pretty hard for the first 2 or 3 miles, and the temperature in the canyon got colder and colder as I went up. By the time I hit the turnaround point, my water bottles had frozen and I hadn't been able to feel my hands for about 30 minutes. The pace on the way up was snail-slow, but the way back was decent without any particular effort. Splits were: Mile 9: 6:22 (151) Mile 10: 6:30 (158) Mile 11: 6:34 (159) Mile 12: 6:29 (159) Mile 13: 6:44 (158) Mile 14: 6:38 (158) Mile 15: 6:28 (161) Overall average: 7:30 (152)
